This is really neat: A global "Sidewalk Joy" map, kind of like those little libraries, but for other fun stuff. I even found a couple things near me!

For all those "5/4 Brubeck Day" fans out there. Can't we just get along?

Seen on the Information Superhighway: "Fun fact: If you fly from the newly named Donald J. Trump International Airport to Sioux City, Iowa, your ticket will say DJT-SUX." -- I suddenly want to go to Florida just so I can leave it for Iowa.
So, we have resurrected our vinyl records from storage in the basement. it’s really fun to get reacquainted with full albums and artwork again, but one unexpected realization is how SHORT an album side feels now. 4 or 5 songs fly by very quickly. Streaming has changed my sense of time.

@QasimRashid to be fair, NPR has had interviews with his previous pastor and his church, but your basic points are valid.

@stux@mstdn.social it sounds like *you* are the neighbors *she* has wanted for a long time, too 🥰

As a life-long fan of Looney Tunes, I'm excited for this to finally make it to theaters. #TeamCoyote

RIP to Barney Frank. He was such a force. 🏳️🌈
This is interesting. I've only heard of half of these, and I've only actually used a couple. Now I want to try them all (well, except for the maybe extinct one, of course):

The camera footage is INSANE!

@Tamami amateurish? Elementary?? Artists are always their own harshest critic. I think it’s gorgeous!

@SRDas@mastodon.online @culturednyc@mastodon.social fair. But hard to top them as stellar representatives of their country!

@alineblankertz@indieweb.social I mean, I just think it’s a cool project, I didn’t make it, but if you don’t see your part of the world represented, make one and add yours to the map. That’s how it truly gets “world wide” ❤️

@TheLastOfHisName@beige.party so good. I am continually blown away that they aren’t from the southern U.S., because they capture that area and Gram Parsons’ high lonesome sound like they were born to into it.

@brandonscript particularly the episode focused on Jae’den, the Klingon, for me. He was really a standout.

@cstross question: how did you transfer all your open tabs and extensions? I think that’s what is holding me back…

@brandonscript i was hesitant at first, but i ended up really liking it. it was swinging for new audiences and new angles. i appreciate that. and the actors were all great.

@das_g@chaos.social @PeterSommerlad@mastodon.social @mikill@mastodon.world great info, and a lot to consider. I have nothing to do with The Worldwide Sidewalk Joy Map, though. I just stumbled across it and thought it was cool and worth sharing. I wonder if you could reach out to the creator through the site and see if she would be interested in incorporating them. Making it fully useable with OSM would be super cool.

So what’s it down to now — Argentina vs. Spain for the World Cup? I don’t have strong feelings either way, hmm. May the best team win! 🇦🇷⚽️🇪🇸

@pussreboots@sfba.social @akamran@indieweb.social @ExtinctionR@social.rebellion.global 60s & 70s, yes, but 80s — not that I recall. It’s nice to see it returning, for sure.

@2003MugishaPhocit@mastodon.social nothing! It just needs representation. Perhaps you should make something and add it to the map. Why not contribute?

@ChrisWellens@sfba.social @samlitzinger@journa.host it’s the interruptions that are the key there, from what I understand.

@samlitzinger@journa.host i feel it’s not fair to blame the founders. they were people, not psychics. they could never have conceived of our world, and yet the system they came up with has gotten us this far — longer than any other democracy, i believe.
